Lyrics
Oh your eyes don't dance the way they use to when you walk through the door
And your smile just pretends like you've been through all of this before
Oh I guess the forever is no longer in your forever more
It doesn't beat for me
You use to touch me as if time were standing still for you and I
And every moon and every open sky were filled each night
To guide our hearts through our many lives
I don't know where I'm going but now I realize
It doesn't beat for me
Oh so when do you know that your doors have all closed upon you
When do you feel that you can return to life again
How can you go on to believing that tomorrow
This pain you have will end
Oh your smile seems endless still when I close my eyes
Though a tear still falls some days
I thought that now I would have forgotten so many things
That you use to say
Oh who says that love is not eternal
Who says another love will come your way
I don't know who they might be
All I know is it doesn't beat for me
